Even the best priced coffee quickly deteriorate if improperly stored
.
The concept of "fast" - is not months or weeks. Sometimes a couple of hours is enough to rare coffee of exceptional quality and excellent taste lost his dignity.
Agree, an acquaintance of many situations where, after tasting expensive coffee waiting for you great disappointment - like the crop and the date written, fresh, and a coffee brand with an excellent image, and prepared by professional baristas, and the taste of the drink is good except for the cheap bar under the slogan "the one who buys two hot dogs and coffee for free. "
No, you do not necessarily have purchased a fake - probably coffee hopelessly corrupt improper storage.
Many factors can destroy the pleasure of a cup of coffee, lowering its quality, yet at the stage, while coffee is not fried - in that form, green beans, he delivered coffee magnates, who are engaged in roasting the grains and further sales.
When it comes to storage of green coffee beans, they must be stored, preventing freezing and high humidity. The cold will kill most of the flavors and moisture contributes to mold. By the way, many suppliers of coffee spread the walls of cotton bags, so he absorbed the moisture arising from the outside and not let her apply to grain.
But the biggest loss of quality due to improper storage begins when the beans already roasted, and in that form of sale of coffee in 99% in stores and coffee shops. Fresh roasted coffee decreases with each passing minute, as in the hourglass. Unfortunately, the roasted coffee loses its best qualities within a couple of weeks - all the coffee experts say, why should you buy green coffee beans and roasting it in small portions just before cooking. But it comes only a few freaks, coffee lover, gourmet. In the usual coffee lover to such a procedure among the working day just do not have time, and freely buy green coffee beans in the near to the house of the store - the task almost impossible.
How to reduce the loss of quality in the home storage of coffee? The main thing to remember - the air and light are the principal enemies of roasted coffee.
A big mistake many coffee people, who spread coffee beans in decorative translucent banks for admiring them on the kitchen shelves - and to the interior are perfect and look for a long time before cooking is not necessary. Incidentally, the same huge mistake made and traders of coffee, putting it on display under the bright spotlights. From the penetrating light and air in the leaky banks beans quickly dry (stale), destroying its fresh flavor.
Store coffee beans are recommended in a ceramic or glass airtight container, necessarily in a dark and cool place (but not the freezer).
If you bought a coffee in the package, after its opening as soon recommend to pour grain into the correct containers (see paragraph above) for more long-term preservation of quality.
But do not forget that even the best high-priced coffee and, if properly stored will lose its aroma and flavor even after two weeks, if not stored in the green, and in fried form.
